Since Pekka P. Pirinen does not think others think this is a virtue,

and his opinionated and arrogant self does not know how to /behave/ in a
way that would persuade /anyone/ to follow his lead,
| the best you can do is to teach this virtue to your students.
the best people can do is kill-file the snotty bastard who only comments
on other people and not on Lisp issues, ayway.
| But do tell them to come. The only way we get more future contributors

Yeah, and disrespect for other people. We sure need a lot more of that.
People who /volunteer/ their disrespectful opinions about others in a
discussion about civility should really have their heads examined.
